Makerspace

July Open House!

The Makerspace at the CSM Velocity Center is a 1,984 square foot collaborative community work space for making, learning, exploring, and sharing.  It is equipped with a variety of maker equipment including 3D printers/scanners, laser cutters, soldering irons and other additive and subtractive machines for manufacturing. It also includes hardware and software for cyber/gaming, CAD modeling, simulation, app development, robotics, and prototyping.  This space is available for the Navy scientists and industry leaders to interact with students in tech transfer courses and have a place to tinker and conduct unclassified research.  The community can also take advantage of the makerspace in the Velocity Center to tinker and create.
